Mathematics
1 answer:
White raven [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

20 men will paint the same wall in 3/4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information is:

5 men paint a wall in 3 hours

Let x be the number of men

It is also mentioned that the rate will be same with x men. So we have to put both the rates/proportions equivalent to find the number of men.

So,

men * hours = men*hours\\5*3 = x*\frac{3}{4}\\15 = \frac{3}{4}x\\x = \frac{4}{3} * 15\\x = 20

Hence,

20 men will paint the same wall in 3/4 hours.

What does it mean to eliminate a variable?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The elimination method for solving systems of linear equations uses the addition property of equality. You can add the same value to each side of an equation.

So if you have a system: x – 6 = −6 and x + y = 8, you can add x + y to the left side of the first equation and add 8 to the right side of the equation. And since x + y = 8, you are adding the same value to each side of the first equation.
